<p>YouTube is an incredible resource for game developers, but sorting the gems out can be a challenge. Today we are going to highlight 6 excellent game development channels, especially if you are a Godot developer, as well as general game development guides, Blender, GameMaker and more.</p>
<h3><a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/AskGamedev">AskGameDev</a></h3>
<p>AskGameDev is a collection of game developers that set out to answer your questions about game development. They cover many of aspects of gamedev that are often not covered, such as how to run a Kickstarter, how to get or deal with a publisher, as well as several game development themed compilations. AskGameDev also have a website <a href="https://www.askgamedev.com/">available here</a>.</p>
<h3><a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/Gdquest/">GDQuest</a></h3>
<p>GDQuest are home to dozens of Godot tutorials, in fact Nathan from GDQuest is a member of the Godot documentation team. In addition to Godot coverage, GDQuest has tutorials on all kinds of FOSS software such a Blender and Krita. The GDQuest website is <a href="http://gdquest.com/">available here</a>.</p>
<h3><a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/uheartbeast">HeartBeast</a></h3>
<p>HeartBeast started out as a GameMaker tutorial channel, of which there are dozens of high quality long form tutorial series. In more recent years, Heartbeast has been instead creating high quality multipart and stand-alone tutorials on Godot.

<h3><a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/borncg">BornCG</a></h3>
<p>BornCG has been making high quality Blender YouTube tutorials on his channel created in 2008! In more recent years BornCG has been increasingly covering the Godot game engine, as well as creating modern Blender tutorials as well.</p>
<h3><a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/AskGamedev">DevDuck</a></h3>
<p>DevDuck is the newest channel on this list, less than two year old and already over 100K subscribers, an impressive feat! DevDuck is a professional developer that is documenting his indie game development experience on the side. He started off with Unity but switched to Godot and of course did videos explaining why and how.</p>
<h3><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNaPQ5uLX5iIEHUCLmfAgKg">KidsCanCode</a></h3>
<p>KidsCanCode have the project mission to get kids started in coding as young as possible, often through the process of creating games. Early on they did mostly Python and PyGame tutorials but then switched to Godot in recent years. They also run the <a href="http://kidscancode.org/godot_recipes/">Godot Recipes</a> on their site, a collection of snippets on how to accomplish specific tasks in Godot and GDScript.</p>
